Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] |
Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure [Text Block] | Discontinued Operations On November 6, 2015, we completed the sale of Sikorsky to Lockheed Martin Corp. In the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recognized approximately $11 million of additional gain on the disposal, primarily resulting from the settlement of working capital adjustments. In the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recognized approximately $40 million of income tax benefit and $12 million of additional income tax expense, respectively, including the impacts related to filing Sikorsky's 2015 tax returns. Net cash outflows from discontinued operations of approximately $2.5 billion resulted from the payment of taxes related to the 2015 gain realized on the sale of Sikorsky.
